Résumé

Water heating constitutes approximately 18% of energy consumption and is the second largest energy expense in United States homes. Heat pump water heaters (HPWHs) are energy efficient technologies with lower carbon footprints as compared to conventional water heating technologies, such as gas and electrical resistance heaters. The performance of water-source HPWHs can be improved by recovering heat from blackwater using drain heat recovery heat exchangers. Depending on water draw patterns of single family and multifamily residences, the operation and heat transfer performance of these heat exchangers are highly transient. This paper examines the thermo-hydraulic performance of a drain heat recovery heat exchanger during its transient and steady-state operations. The heat recovery performance of the exchanger was evaluated at different inlet temperatures and flow rates ranging from 9°C to 36°C and 0.03 kg/s to 0.28 kg/s, respectively. The obtained effectiveness varies from 45%–85% depending on the operating conditions. The test facility, steady-state and transient experimental procedures are reported in detail. Further, the effect of operating conditions on the effectiveness is discussed. The experimental approach and results of the study will provide insights into the transient operation of drain recovery heat exchangers as well as, guide sizing for various steady-state conditions.
